The perimeter was surrounded by Sun Moon Empire soldiers in uniform armor. There were over a thousand of them. These soldiers formed a circular formation, arranged in three layers, holding various soul tools. They took turns attacking the center of the encirclement, with soul beams, fireballs, ice cones, and lightning raging across the battlefield.
The soldiers were attacking a massive black hole, over ten meters in diameter. All sorts of creatures were constantly pouring out of it. There were bats with four claws on their bellies, snakes with countless legs, and bizarre creatures with scales all over their bodies that resembled octopuses.
However, because the black hole was of a limited size, these strange creatures were torn apart by the firepower net formed by the Sun Moon Empire soldiers' soul tools the instant they appeared. Therefore, the scene was one-sided: the Sun Moon Empire soldiers continuously pouring out attacks, while the strange creatures kept sending themselves to their deaths.
It looked like a one-sided slaughter, but Huo Yuhao saw some clues. The monsters didn't leave behind corpses after they died, instead turning into a cloud of black fog and disappearing. Coupled with their utter disregard for death, it made one wonder if these monsters were truly killed or if they could revive.
Revive?
Huo Yuhao felt like he had grasped something. He thought carefully, then looked around at the environment. There were ruined walls and broken buildings, a heavy atmosphere of death, and even the soil was like that, as if all life force had been sucked away.
Sucked away, life force.
Suddenly, a bolt of lightning flashed through his mind, and combining all the signs, Huo Yuhao thought about where these monsters might come from.
The Abyssal Plane, a world that evolves by devouring other world planes, a terrifying existence that could bring about the destruction of the entire Douluo Continent.
Huo Yuhao knew clearly that the current Douluo Continent had no chance of winning against the Abyssal Plane. According to the original story, the Abyssal Plane had a total of one hundred and eight layers, and each layer had an Emperor. The weakest of them all had the strength of a Titled Douluo.
Of course, that was the strength of ten thousand years later. However, even so, the Abyssal Plane was not something the current Douluo Continent could contend with. It could be confirmed that the strongest person in the Abyssal Plane, the Abyssal Saint Sovereign, was definitely a god-level powerhouse.
In the original story, after Tang San ascended to the God Realm, he made his old man Tang Hao the master of the Douluo Plane, and his mother became the core of life, and his son was also doing well on the Douluo Continent.
But when his son was rampaging on the Douluo Continent, the God Realm was swept away by the chaotic flow of time and space, and he didn't know where it went. Later, Tang San discovered the Abyssal Plane, so he tried to expose the location of the Douluo Continent to the Abyssal Plane.
So the following trend was just as Tang San had planned. The Abyssal Plane invaded the Douluo Continent, and the Abyssal Saint Sovereign descended domineeringly on the Douluo Continent, but he eventually fell into Tang San's trap. An existence at the peak of a First-Grade God, after coming to the Douluo Continent, was suppressed by the plane and was actually smashed to death by a piece of shit like Tang Hao with a hammer. You say, is it aggrieved or not?
Then the entire Abyssal Plane collapsed, and the plane's energy was devoured and absorbed by Tang San's mother. The massive energy made the Douluo Plane upgrade. From then on, because of the abundance of heaven and earth energy, soul master cultivation on the Douluo Continent, god-level was no longer a fantasy.
This was Tang San's goal: After the God Realm was swept away by the spatial-temporal storm, Tang San didn't know when he would be able to return. He worried that his son would die of old age on the Douluo Continent, so he tried every means to upgrade the entire Douluo Plane. Only in this way could his son become a god, and only after becoming a god and extending his lifespan could he wait for Tang San and the God Realm to return.
Now, the Abyss had arrived early. Was this a coincidence, or was someone deliberately attracting them?
Huo Yuhao couldn't help but fall into thought. If it was a coincidence, what was the God Realm doing? Why hadn't they taken any measures? The Douluo Continent, under the management of the God Realm, was among the highest levels. The God Realm shouldn't simply ignore it. Could it be that it happened too suddenly, and they hadn't had time to react? Or perhaps, something had happened in the God Realm.
Or was this another scheme by a certain God King? Huo Yuhao quickly dismissed this thought. The current God Realm wasn't under the control of any single person; they wouldn't dare to do something that would incur the wrath of the heavens.
Returning his gaze to the battlefield below, Huo Yuhao looked around. Within dozens of miles, it had become a wasteland. The entire town seemed to have been erased. The town wasn't large, but it had an estimated population of tens of thousands. How many could have survived such a sudden invasion by Abyss creatures?
And these soldiers, what a heavy price they had paid to kill the Abyss creatures that had spread out.
This was only the beginning. What about later? What if the spatial black hole expanded? What if even stronger monsters emerged?
In the original story, Tang San had brought the Abyss for his own selfish reasons, resulting in the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people. Among them were the pillars of their families, husbands, and fathers of young children.
Your son's life is a life, but other people's sons' lives don't matter, and they should die for your son? The leader of the God Realm's evil deeds were too numerous to count, defying all reason. Deserving of death, deserving of being killed.
In his anger, Huo Yuhao was suddenly startled. Supposing something had truly happened to the God Realm, and if the God Realm was gone, then perhaps the plot of the original story would be staged in advance, after all, a certain God King's daughter was still on the Douluo Continent.
Du Busi's gaze was fixed on the black hole space. With his cultivation, he could sense that the energy magnetic field within this black hole space was very unstable. This instability didn't mean that the black hole space would collapse, but rather that the energy magnetic field it generated would repel other energies within the space. These other energies were the Abyss creatures.
That is to say, the stronger the energy, the stronger the repulsion from the black hole space. This energy strength is not only possessed by Abyss creatures, but also by soul masters. The stronger the cultivation, the stronger the energy, and the stronger the repulsion from the black hole space.
Staring at the black hole space, even with Du Busi's cultivation, he felt an extreme sense of danger, as if he would be torn to pieces if he went in. In this way, weaker beings would not be affected by the black hole space, which is also the reason why the monsters that appeared were generally weaker.
While the master and disciple were thinking, the Sun Moon Empire's military also discovered them. Immediately, a general in the army rode a flying soul tool and flew over.
The general flew in front of them and sternly questioned, "What is your purpose for trespassing on our military base without permission?"
Du Busi didn't even bother to look at him. A small Soul Emperor was nothing in his eyes. After thinking for a moment, Du Busi waved his hand. At the black hole, a bat monster was firmly held by an invisible force, and then flew towards Du Busi.
When the bat monster came in front of him, Du Busi didn't say anything. He pressed a large hand on the bat monster's head. He didn't know what means Du Busi used, but the bat monster let out a shrill scream.
The general saw that Du Busi didn't pay attention to him, and was slightly displeased, but he didn't flare up. He wasn't stupid. These two people were flying in the air without the aid of soul tools, so they were at least Soul Bone Saint level. He didn't want to offend them without cause if it wasn't necessary.
Moreover, it seemed that these two people had come to investigate the situation after hearing about the black hole space. This kind of thing had happened more than once or twice during this period, so it wasn't anything to be surprised about.
Huo Yuhao curiously glanced at Du Busi, not understanding what he was doing. Was he studying the bat's anatomy?
However, there was another fellow he needed to deal with at the moment. He turned his gaze to the general. "Esteemed General, please rest assured, we harbor no ill will. We are here to understand the situation, to assess the danger posed by these monsters, and nothing more."
The general nodded slightly. After all, they were all human. Everyone understood the principle that those not of their kind had ulterior motives. Moreover, these monsters had just appeared and slaughtered a town.
